Crude-Sucking Barges Stopped by Coast Guard

The CG takes orders from Janet Napolitano, and she takes them from Zero.

[Rodm]

FOIA: Who ordered the Coast Guard to shut this operation down?

Let’s see Barry’s email!

[Hillbillary]

Sorry, if I were Bobby Jindal I'd have gone outlaw a month ago.
"If you want to stop them you'll have to shoot."
(And if you shoot, do not, absolutely do NOT, try returning to a Louisiana port.)

Great point. And the worst that could happen is it would get covered in the news that someone took the initiative.

[steve86]

I have another problem with following stupid orders.

[Tax-chick]

Yes, there’s that. It’s part of the military - or the government - mindset, imo, to get bogged down in the minutiae of regulations at the expense of the bigger picture.

I’m glad Anoreth is far away from all of this.

[Conservative9]

You are joking right? You must not live near the cost.

[ducttape45]

Does anyone in the federal government have any brains? Stopping the oil barges, suing Arizona over the immigration law they passed, cap and trade, government takeover of healthcare, my God, when will it all stop?

Does anyone now think this will end in anything but a civil revolt against the very government that has sworn to uphold the law and protect us against, well, I was going to say the enemy but the enemy is them!

This is one screwed up country.

[MamaDearest]

Yes...they work. For Obama and company that’s the problem.

Yup, especially when they're pimping Corexit/NALCO $$$$$$ business for Al Gore and George Soros. Keeping "the business" among friends = priceless!

[Glenn]

REVOLT!

[Conservative9]

Can you send that message to LA? You will have an army of cajuns behind you.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Surely there are patriots that will expose the treason?

[Gene Eric]

>> Whose brilliant idea was this?

Jindal and the Gulf Coast got what they deserved for taking matters into their owns hands. /s

Control freakish, I’d say...

[isom35]

What would I call a barge that sucks up barack petrolem? the SS Larry Sinclair.

[steve86]

After watching Madelyn in the Young Marines (which is very good for her), I can see I would last about 12 picoseconds in any kind of military unit. Obedience is not in my makeup, nor is following instructions or conformity of any kind.

[Conservative9]

So when do you think it is time for a military commander to protect his homeland no matter what? He should have refused with the threat of resignation instead of following this stupid order. But this is the same guy who told Obama to cut the CG budget. No matter their ships are in huge need of upgrades.

[fanfan]

Obama and Co. ARE destroying the United States of America.

Your Constitution allows you, THE PEOPLE, to save your Republic from enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

Do it now.
You can’t afford to wait.

[Conservative9]

No, this Lt. Cmdr. is pretty much the enemy now to. We need men with guts who stand up for their country, no matter their career. The rank and file men are heroes that this idiot puts in horrible position.

[tacticalogic]

They’re screwing with Obama’s crisis.
